Gonna give it all away

Sorry, I have to send you this
Just a little list
Of all the things I kept for you
I don't need it now, sending it to you

I tried to get you to understand
You just wanted other than
Always kept you for yourself
Here's the list, but I will give these to somebody else

One look that said you were my everything
A kiss that said you were enough
That hug that kept you warm
This strong back you rode when times got tough
Some extra energy I kept for nights
A big smile that started the days
That understanding the kept you number one
A gentle touch to rub pain away

So many things you didn't want
I saved and gave the same
You don't want them
Somebody wants each one by name

Never went generic
Real love
Real time
Real care

Humility
Patience
Bedside sits

There's a chef
A great lover
A damn good mechanic

Oh, one poet
Extra passion
Some tears

You hadn't used all of these yet
Some incredible years

Yes, I had a pretty good list
Gonna see if anybody would like any of this

None of them are for sale
They come from the best of me
I will give them away
All of them for free
